Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Already have an entire Forge World chaos renegades army and lots of other FW models, but if I suddenly had a lot of money, like millions, I could then rationalize buying a couple forge world titans. Probably get a reaver and at least 1 warhound. In some combo of one chaos and one loyalist.
I already make enough money and not being married anymore or having any kids I can buy whatever I want for 40k already without thinking about it too much., but still can't rationalize the money of any of the FW titans. Hehehe...

I thought that way about my chaos renegades army and then my wife walked out and suddenly I had more money than I knew what to do with and could spend however I liked again.

First, I'd finish my Tau, Eldar, and Salamander armies (at least 3000 points each). Second, I'd get someone to make a sequel to Space Marine. Lastly, I'd have a GOOD live-action mini-series made about IG...as for dicector/writer/cast, I have no idea

Well, id finish my Dynasty and my Cadre rules, pay someone at GW to publish them as codexes, then buy both in full power.
If I had anything left, Id buy IA12 and a few bits of FW Necrons (Megaliths and Pylons).
Anything left then would go to paying GW to see some sense and let the gamers run the game.
Then go take the rest of my FLGS on at once.

Well in my mansion house (which I would also buy with the lottery winning) I would section off a whole section of its basement and make a Massive hobby room, with enough space for 2 game tables, and then built in wall shelves for terrain. There would also be a work station and like carpenter boxes for tools and bits. Then I would go to town on GW and Forge world, finish my current armies and start up a whole bunch of amries I have planed, Like pre Heresy Luna wolfs in all MKII from forgeworld, a kit bashed cadian/catchan vietnam style valkirie air cav list and then porbably a DKoK army.... at least thats the forseable futer plan....

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat. They won, no question. Lorgar even says: "The Wolves won, meathead."
Dorn won’t help you either. He’s too busy being the Emperor’s groundskeeper, hiding behind the palace walls. The Wolf is too busy cutting off heads as our father’s executioner, while the Lion holds on to his secrets, and has no special fondness for you. Who else will come? Not Ferrus, certainly. Nor Corax either. Even as we speak, I suspect he flees for Deliverance. Sanguinius?’ Curze laughed cruelly. ‘The angel is more cursed than I. The Khan? He does not wish to be found. So who is left?
